GoGold reported record production for the quarter ending December 31, 2019, of 379,082 ounces silver and 2,407oz gold driven by production at its Parral operation in Chihuahua, which has increased for five consecutive quarters.

This drilling can potentially yield additional high-grade intercepts which could be a bulk minable target," said president and Brad Langille in a statement.
